Add a feature to hide pre-defined conetxt menu options like Include and Exclude while embedding a report.

This will help in scenarios where we embed for the customer in ISV apps. When drillthrough is used to navigate between pages, customers get confused by seeing these options.

RE: Hide context menu options

Yes, we only want our users to be using the drill through options we provide. Showing all of the additional options on right-click really confuses many people and they can wind up really messing things up - especially with the include/exclude options!! It's fine to show the rest of the menu options for power users but not your average user. Unfortunately they will simply avoid using the reports because it's "too complicated". Its very easy for a user to click the wrong option when right-clicking to get to the drill through...

RE: Hide context menu options

Yes this would be a great feature. Currently my end users get confused about it and I don't want them to use it since I have a Drill through to show more details.
